Test Manager Guide
This guide describes how to manage and track your overall test effort. This guide is intended for test managers.
Test assets and a server project
HCL OneTest™ Server projects manage access to your test assets, which are stored in a Git repository. Projects are maintained in a team space. Projects are either public by default or private. Private projects are not discoverable by other users. You can either add your own project or you can request to be a member of another public project.
Viewing active projects
After you log in to HCL OneTest™ Server, you can view both active and archived projects in the Initial team space.

Test Manager Guide
This guide describes how to manage and track your overall test effort. This guide is intended for test managers.
- Team space management
  You might want to become a team space member, add members to your team space, change a user role in a team space, modify the team space, or delete a team space.
- Test assets and a server project
  HCL OneTest™ Server projects manage access to your test assets, which are stored in a Git repository. Projects are maintained in a team space. Projects are either public by default or private. Private projects are not discoverable by other users. You can either add your own project or you can request to be a member of another public project.
  - Working with projects in a team space
    After you log in to HCL OneTest™ Server, you must have a project to perform the test activities. To work with projects, you must create and configure projects.
  - Repository considerations for a server project
    To collaborate with other project stakeholders, you can open test assets from a local clone of the Git repository, pull project test assets from a Git repository, and push changes made to your local test assets to a Git repository. Before you add a project and add a repository to that project, you must consider some information about repositories.
  - Adding a project
    The first step is to add a project and provide some details about it.
  - Adding repositories to a server project
    You can add a single repository individually or multiple repositories simultaneously to a server project to access assets and resources that are available in the repositories.
  - Secrets configuration
    If you are working with an API suite and the project test asset contains environment variables that are required for the test runs, you must configure the environment variables as secrets in a secrets collection by using the Secrets tab. Configuring secrets enable the API suite to run correctly on HCL OneTest™ Server.
  - Adding users to a project
    You can add users to your server project so they can access your test assets.
  - Viewing active projects
    After you log in to HCL OneTest™ Server, you can view both active and archived projects in the Initial team space.
  - Changing the visibility configuration of a project
    After you create a project, you might want to change the visibility configuration of the project from the public, which is the default, to private.
  - Becoming a project member
    You might want to request to be a member of another project. New users without any projects might also want to be a member of an existing project.
  - Managing access to server projects
    You might want to add or remove a project member role from your project.
  - Archiving or unarchiving server projects
    You can archive a project when that project is no longer needed but you want to retain it for future reference. If you do want to use an archived project, you can unarchive it.
  - Deleting server projects
    You might want to delete a project when the project is no longer needed, and you want to free up disk space.
  - Project overview
    After you configure a project with one or more Git repositories and run some test assets, you can view statistics about those test assets.
- Managing repositories
  After you create a project in HCL OneTest™ Server, you can add repositories that contain test assets and resources to the project. You can also change the repository details, update the user credentials of a repository, delete a repository, create a webhook for the configured repository.
- Protecting API test assets by using secrets
  Secrets are key-value pairs that are created for your project in HCL OneTest™ Server under a secrets collection. You can create secrets collections for your project that enable you or members in your project to use secrets at test runtime either in HCL OneTest Server or in desktop clients.
- Managing an encrypted dataset
  You can use encrypted datasets to limit access to confidential information such as account number or passwords. You can arrange data by an appropriate category so that project members can use datasets more effectively in certain tests and protect them.
- Managing notifications
  HCL OneTest™ Server provides a feature to display notifications for different events within the user interface (UI) of HCL OneTest Server. You can configure an SMTP server on HCL OneTest Server when you want HCL OneTest Server to send out notifications about the different events as emails to the subscribed users.

Viewing active projects

After you log in to HCL OneTest™ Server, you can view both active and archived projects in the Initial team space.

About this task

As a project owner, you can view your projects under the My Projects panel, and the projects that are created by other users as public projects are displayed under the Other Projects panel. You can view a list of all active projects that you created under My Projects. You can view a list of all archived projects under Archived Projects.

Procedure

Log in to HCL OneTest™ Server.

The Projects page is displayed.

You can view the following projects:

The active projects that you created or added to as a member with either the Tester or Viewer role are displayed under the My Projects panel.
The active projects that are created by others as public projects are displayed under the Other Projects panel.

Results

You have viewed the active projects that are created by you and other users in the team space.

What to do next

You can perform any of the following tasks:

Create a project. See Adding details to a server project.
Request to become a member of a project that is displayed under the Other Projects panel. See Becoming a project member.
View the other pages in the team space and perform tasks on those pages. See Tasks in a team space.
